Scope and content
One card from Philip Grierson, in manuscript, dated 17 October 1979 (or possibly 1978?), complaining about a government working party called the Library Advisory Council set up in 1978 to report on the development of libraries. The card concludes with the note "Back to numismatics! What a different view from the Parthenon", in reference to the postcard image on the other side of the card, showing the "View from the Parthenon, Athens". Staple holes in the card suggest that the card was originally attached to other material, no longer attached.
